BTW, did anyone notice the cockpit transition of hands on the throttles?

Looks like PIC (Pilot in Command) hands off control to co-pilot just before V1 or just before rotation.

How come? Hollywoodism?

Did you notice that PIC had palms down, then co-pilot had palms up, on the throttles?

Keefy...Comments?

Also, movie which follows is "Guns of Navaronne"...not my most favourite, but neat shot of James Darren knocking off the German boarding party with a Bren gun!

Ho-Hum...SNL should be on soon.
